Clever AFC Design Secures Wiring Inside Rigid Pipe
Clifton, NJ: The FTH-25 SPIRALFEEDER® mobile flexible screw conveyor from process equipment manufacturer Automated Flexible Conveyor, Clifton, NJ, (afcspiralfeeder.com) features a novel design that encloses the electrical wiring system inside corrosion-resistant, aluminum conduit. Devised to safeguard the sensitive electrical wires, the rigid, metal piping eliminates the potential for exposure to dust and ambient moisture and prevents contact with workers, equipment, and bulk materials in process. The design approach provides a high level of durability, safety, and longevity that is not commonly available in a flexible screw conveyor, along with a clean aesthetic that coordinates with sanitary processing facilities.
Suitable for food, chemical, pharmaceutical, and other manufacturers concerned with safety, cleanliness, and reliable operation, the FTH-Fork Truck Hopper 25 SPIRALFEEDER automatically transfers powders, pellets, and other dry, bulk materials from the hopper to discharge via a screw auger rotating inside an enclosed tube. The automated conveying system features designed-in fork pockets to permit safe, easy transport by forklift from one plant location to another to serve multiple machines or processes using a single screw conveyor.
The FTH-25 Fork Truck Hopper SPIRALFEEDER is designed and manufactured with the protective electrical enclosures at the company’s New Jersey facility. Product and material testing are offered in the on-site test laboratory.
